Gloomy signs about the sputtering American economy are credited for sending the price of oil down by $2.50 this morning. Oil is trading at $82.32 U-S a barrel — down 22 per cent since the start of last month. That’s putting downward pressure on the dollar, which dropped six-10ths of-a-cent this morning. The loonie is trading at 96.67 cents U-S.
